Wall Drug Jackalope507 viewsAh, how can you drive west on I-90 through South Dakota without stopping at Wall Drug? Call me crazy, I actually kind of LIKE that place. It's free, as long as you don't spend money there (and you will). We actually ate two different meals there, and bought a few cheap trinkets...

2008 or 2009?506 viewsOk, so now I'm confused, what year is it, anyway? Actually, I think the do the grains early in the season, and the corn late in the season (since they have to wait for it to actually grow). The murals are done in corn, and the 2009 in grains. So there ya have it.
